Jessica Simpson accepts a special gift from Ellen DeGeneres on an episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show airing Wednesday (April 28) – a basket full of dental floss!

The 29-year-old entertainer, who said she’s currently “single but…mingling around,” shared, “I mingle around very privately. I have ways in and out of my house and certain places that I go that are private just so I can have a normal life. I’m still out there and bring normal.”

As why she only brushes her teeth three times a week, Jess shared, “My teeth are so white and I don’t like them to feel too slippery, but I do use Listerine and I do floss every day. But, I don’t brush them every day.”

“I’ll use a shirt or something,” Jess continued. “I know it’s gross but I always have fresh breath. It’s really weird, but I have great breath.”
